Stéphane Wirtel added the comment: I proposed my PR but I prefer a review because in the code of ipaddress, there is a function for the validation of an address with the netmask. Maybe we could use this function and try to refactor/improve the current code. -- nosy: +matrixise

New submission from John Florian : I wanted a simple is_valid_ipv4_network() function, so I wrote one and a bunch of unit tests where I discovered that I can legally: >>> n = IPv4Network(('192.168.123.234', 12345678)) >>> n IPv4Network('192.168.123.234/12345678') >>> n.prefixlen 12345678 >>>
